Not only was the 2013 line up one of the most impressive festival bills - seeing incredible performances from Neck Deep, Yellowcard, Hacktivist and a secret acoustic performance by A Day To Remember - In addition, the VANS WARPED TOUR also ran an initiative which saw the donation of hundreds of food tins and cash donations after fans were invited to support the Islington Foodbank and the Trussell Trust to help those in need in the local community. A huge amount of money was also raised for Teenage Cancer Trust via guest list donations and their booth, which saw the likes of While She Sleeps and Crossfaith stop by to meet fans and support the charity.
